I got XSI 6.01 (or something like that)and it works okay.I installed the BF2 addon and when I exported something it didn't work and XSI crashed.Now when I start it up it says something like "Failure to save before system crash" and when I click ok XSI crashes.I can move it out of the way or I run as Admin and it doesn't show that but the main problem is that I can't export.Any help?

Yikes. XSI 6.0 is crippled, and riddled with bugs. I would get softimage 2013, or 2012. Both are free. Or at the very least softimage mod tool 7.5. Google it because, well..... :google: As for exporting, the pandemic addon only works in xsi 5.11 or below. I would use ZETools, it has 99% of all the features found in the pandemic addon. ZETools also has a really good exporter. Hope this helps!

The Pandemic Tools are not compatible with any version of the free XSI Mod Tool or full commercial versions of XSI 6 or higher. For those you'll need ANDE's XSI ZETools, more information can be found here.

The "Export Mesh" script will crash the application which means you can't export to MSH with these packages unless you use ZE Tools or the MshEx conversion pipeline.

You can just use Softimage Mod Tool 7.5 and ZETools, both of which are linked to in the sticky threads at the top of this forum.
